    What’s the traffic like on Lake Shore and Michigan on a summer Saturday/Sunday? I visited a few years ago in June and got in on a Sunday, and everything seemed pretty tame. Maybe that was an anomaly. I guess the streets are only closed for two days? Not sure how much of a difference that makes.

    Sounds almost enough to make one yearn for a mile-and-a-half cookie-cutter oval in Joliet.

    There are more NASCAR fans in Rockingham than there are in Chicago ... well, at least there used to be.

    11-year-old nephew too.

    Sounding like murder-suicide.

    Murder-suicide. And she killed an 11-year-old, too.

    For once, NASCAR is actually trying to market outside its bubble. Thread.

    Wild sprint race in Austria today. Constant action throughout. That was fun to watch.

    That was fun. Changing weather always makes for the best races.

    I only caught some of the Xfinity and Cup practice, but this didn’t seem like the disaster everyone was predicting it would be. I’ll reserve any judgment until after the checkered flag tomorrow.

    Simon Pagenaud flips out at Mid-Ohio. At real speed, this is one hairy ride. The cockpit cam is even crazier.
